"squeek squeek squeek squeek squeek"

I recently had winter tires put on my g35 - about a week after I had them put on, a squeek started coming from the front, left suspension - anytime I go over a bump, it goes 'squeek'. Doesn't matter the speed - 2mph, 5mph, 40mph, I hear the bloody squeek.

It only seems to disappear at around 60mph (probably too much wind noise to hear it?) but it definately prsent at like 50mph.

Very irratating. Checked tire pressure, fine. Checked lug nuts - tight. Nothing seems visibly wrong.

A friend suggested that when they were jacking the car up to change the tires that they ?unloaded? the springs so they have to settle back in or smething, but that sounds like some generic BS, basically meaning, 'I don't really know what's wrong, btu this sounds like a good answer to give...'

is there any "easy" way to examine the strut to determine if that is the case? (e.g., pull off the wheel and look for.....?)

Could be strut - but the shop could have also slightly bent the disc brake dust shield as well...it could be rubbing.
